Abstract
Abstract— Alcohol detection system is developed for road transportation safety in smart city using Internet of Things (IoT) technology. Due to the rapid increase of vehicles on roads, the probability of road accidents is rising steeply. Drunk driving is considered to be a major cause of road accidents throughout the world. The main aim of this project is to develop a system that would detect the amount of alcohol that is consumed by the driver of the vehicle. This system discusses development and live-performance test of the prototype of drink and drive situation detection and alert cum vehicle control system to minimize road mishaps and enhance public safety on road. The model is developed using Arduino Uno and alcohol detection sensor (MQ-3) as its major components. As a safety measure, when the level of alcohol crosses a permissible limit, Vehicle Control System is triggered to lock ignition or stop the fuel inflow to the vehicle. Additionally, ‘alert SMS’ indicating drunk driver location, tracked by onboard GPS receiver, along with vehicle number is communicated remotely to the authorized people (family). The deployment of this system will help in reducing the incidence of drunk driving related road accidents in smart cities. Keywords—GSM, GPS, Alcohol sensor, Arduino microcontroller, ignition control (DC Motor), Buzzer
